Good recommendations, I hadn’t even considered Zoom and we use it all the time for work.

Not the best answer because it’s not open source, but both Google Photos and Apple iCloud support automatic cloud backups of photos and videos over data. That media can also be accessed separately from a browser or another device after logging in.
Those are the only immediate solutions for the problem you describe that I can think of off the top of my head, I’m afraid, but hopefully other options are out there, too.
It punishes people poorer than me, who are only poor because they deserve it. Right? I mean, if I’m an evil oligarchic asshole, but God loves me enough to let me have all this money, they must be even more evil than I am.
If only we knew at the time how prophetic that damn commercial would be…
Yep. Protests are just being used at this point to root out dissidents. Mutual aid and sabotaging oppressive institutions where possible can be more effective ways for folks to participate in organized resistance without risking life and livelihood.
Definitely not a good thing. I use Proton VPN, but only because I paid for a license before I realized the CEO is a scumbag. A lot of people are moving away from Proton’s platform, so a browser choosing to bundle it in is just privacy-violating bloatware for everyone except for a subset of users who are also still using Proton, and also for some reason don’t just have the standalone app installed.
Weird that it would be coming from Americans given how often US media has depicted the importance of the homefront during the various wars that America has participated in.
Militaries still need food and supplies to operate, so someone has to be making/raising/growing all of that stuff. And those workers need to be paid, accommodated, and kept happy, so every other industry like banking, education, healthcare, entertainment, etc. needs to keep running at full steam to prop up all aspects of the supply chain.
Anyway, the replicants as depicted in all incarnations are clearly biological constructs and not mechanical, so while they’re certainly artificial the notion of whether or not they’re “robots” to begin with is highly debatable.
I would say it’s not even debatable, the issue at the heart of the conflict in the original Blade Runner and continued in 2049 is that the Nexus-7 was made so close to humans that they basically are humans, at least in a biological sense. Maybe the earlier models were more android-like, but later they’re basically just manufactured people.
This is why in 2049 we see >!Deckard, a human, and Rachael, a replicant, were able to conceive a child, who was otherwise born perfectly normal other than not being able to inherit an immune system from her mother.!<
This is also my guess. Nintendo knows the demand, they’ll do $499.99 for the launch model and release a cheaper “lite” version like the original Switch in 2 years at $350 or $400 or something.
I’m not sure if The Last Shogun is something different, but if you’re referring to the Shogun series recently adapted by FX, I can say having watched it that it features a main character who fancies himself a superior white savior, but ultimately leads to realizing how completely out of his depth he is.
But it’s like the Memoir of a Geisha problem: since the original work was written by a white dude anyways, how much value does it have as a cultural work?
They actually did open up the PDF, believe it or not. The standard is currently controlled by ISO, and has been since 2008.
The problem is that PDF is such a shitty format that no one but Adobe really wants to bother trying to work with it. That, and Adobe still owns a lot of the patents for “shit you can do to a PDF” so everyone else has to engineer their own solutions to get around that if they don’t want to pay to license.
VR has the extra element of needing a suitable living space to play in, though. Other games I can do at my desk or in my tiny, cramped living room, but I have nowhere I can easily set up for VR that would allow for significant range of motion.
I own a VR headset, but I only really use it for games that allow you to be stationary and just use the headset as an immersive monitor with a standard controller. As one would expect, it doesn’t get much use, because not many VR games are made to play that way!
Just FYI for any curious: this is the same delay that was announced last month, no additional changes since then.
South Korea’s government managed to successfully impeach and convict him first, though.
Trump has been impeached twice (which is already unprecedented for an American president), but it failed both times because the bar to pass is 2/3 of the senate voting to convict, which simply cannot happen while Republicans control half or more of the senate.
I’m just a bit worried about any potential schism among the Democrats because the electoral system in the US is still incredibly broken and will always gravitate towards a 2-party state.
To me, it seems easier for the Democrats to rebrand as more left-leaning than they currently are and try to remain a united front, rather than splinter into several competing parties.
If anything is to supplant the Democratic party, it would need to be one party supplanting the whole of the Democrats, or else Republicans will remain a plurality and retain control of the US government until the electoral process changes or their numbers diminish.
It’s just that we have to make space for our 5,358 partners and the telemetry data they need.
Wouldn’t that simply create a bitmap circle, though? The advantage of shapes in Photoshop is that they are vectors.
The problem is that he still owns a huge chunk of the stock. Unless he sells it all for some reason (or dies (naturally), now that would be something), there is no way to hope that Tesla succeeds independent of Elon because he directly profits from their success.
Meanwhile, the Democratic Party’s own approval rating is that low, and they’re still not sure when they’re supposed to start trying…
Fuck Oracle.
